The YAK-3 was one of the Soviet Union's best fighters of the War. It was armed with one 20mm cannon and two heavy machine guns. After meeting the new fighter during the mighty Kursk battle in the summer of 1943 the Luftwaffe recognized it had met its match. By 1944 a general directive had gone out to Luftwaffe units on the Eastern Front to "avoid combat below 5,000 m with Yakovlev fighters lacking an oil cooler under the nose". On 14th July 1944 a force of 18 met 30 Luftwaffe fighters and destroyed 15 for the loss of one Yak-3. Small wonder that, offered all available Soviet, British or American fighters, the famed Normandie-Niemen Group changed from the Yak-9 to the Yak-3 and scored the last 99 of their 273 victories on these machines. 4,848 Yak-3's total was built during WWII.
